Before running makepkg, you must do this (as normal user):

$ gpg --auto-key-locate nodefault,wkd --locate-keys torbrowser@torproject.org

If you want to update tor-browser from AUR without AUR helpers you can run in a terminal:

$ tor-browser -u

@grufo, tor-browser -u also reports (trimmed):

$ tor-browser -u                                                                                 ~

Please, can you add

StartupWMClass=Tor Browser

in .desktop file of tor browser? because i pinned it in my taskbar and now i have 2 tor browser icons (one pinned from desktop file and one the application itself running)

Thank you @williX gpg --keyserver keys.openpgp.org --search-keys torbrowser@torproject.org worked for me too before updating. gpg --auto-key-locate nodefault,wkd --locate-keys torbrowser@torproject.org didn't work for me.

After running the solution from the pinned comment (to auto-locate the key) and upgrade with yay it worked fine for me, thanks!

The pinned comment didn't work for me. I had to run gpg --keyserver keys.openpgp.org --search-keys torbrowser@torproject.org (from https://support.torproject.org/de/tbb/how-to-verify-signature/)

"tor-browser -u" doesn't work:

"==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg... tor-browser-linux64-11.0.3_en-US.tar.xz ... FAILED (unknown public key E53D989A9E2D47BF) ==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified! "

Thankfully "gpg --auto-key-locate nodefault,wkd --locate-keys torbrowser@torproject.org " does.

Upstream has added another subkey to the same GPG key, so it needs to be pulled. The pinned command does this, and you need to run it even if you already have the key pulled locally (this is rather unintuitive, hence the clarification).

AUR helpers generally don't do this for you.

@miku86 In case of Darkness yes, but as explained a bit below by @zethra there seems to be another problem which should affect most people updating with AUR helpers.

However you can manually update without the AUR helpers running "tor-browser -u" as normal user. See comment by @zethra for explanations.

@Darkness

The solution is in the pinned comments.
